On 28 November 2024, we return to the University of Nottingham for an evening dedicated to recognising and celebrating the extraordinary work taking place across our trust.

With over 10,000 pupils and 1,200 staff, we have much to celebrate!

This year’s event promises to be even more spectacular, thanks to our special guest host, Geeta Pendse — an experienced freelance journalist and twice Royal Television Society nominated presenter.

We are also thrilled to announce Retinue as our headline sponsor, in partnership with Equans. A leading provider of specialist recruitment managed services, Retinue shares our passion for people and values diversity. Their commitment to recognising the value of different perspectives aligns perfectly with our own mission, vision, and values.
